Album Description That this band?s founders (saxophonist Stan Bronstein and drummer/vocalist Rick Frank) met on the strip joint circuit is too perfect, for if one thing was consistent about Elephant?s Memory?s career through numerous line-up and label changes, it was their flair for the outrageous, culminating in their backing of John Lennon on 'Some Time in New York City' and Yoko on 'Approximately Infinite Universe'. This, however, is their first record, made in 1969 when they were gaining a reputation for wildly theatrical, Zappa-esque stage shows; a unique blend of psychedelia, wistful balladery, jazz and hard rock, this album also landed two songs on the 'Midnight Cowboy' soundtrack, 'Old Man Willow' and 'Jungle Gym at the Zoo'. In short, a very late ?60s New York experience awaits you on this 'Collectors? Choice Music' exclusive! Includes 'Band of Love; Brief Encounter; Crossroads of the Stepping Stones; Don?t Put Me on Trial No More; Hot Dog Man; Jungle Gym at the Zoo; R.I! .P.; Super Heep; Takin? a Walk', and 'Yogurt Song'.

CD ReviewsGet the name right, please! Ms. Michal Shapiro | 02/22/2006 (2 out of 5 stars) "I've read several reviews of this re-issue, and no one seems to be reading my name correctly. All you would be reviewers out there: my name is Michal, not Michael, and I was the singer with the band. Yes Carly Simon and Martha Velez did sing with the band before that, but that's me singing on the recording." Both Of Them Are Great Michael Roy | Canada | 08/20/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "This album is stange in a way. Its very well made. Nice harmonies on the vocals. All the instruments sound great together. The saxophone also fits well within the tracks. I also have there 2nd album "Elephants Memory" on Apple Records produced by John Lennon & Yoko Ono. Sadly that one is not avalible on CD yet. Hopefully soon enought. If You Like Beatles Related Stuff I strongly recommend this album. Great Addition to any collection." A Wiser Purchase is the MIDNIGHT COWBOY score L. S. Slaughter | Chapel Hill, NC | 11/04/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "That score, along with John Barry's original themes and Nilsson's "Everybody's Talkin'", includes the BEST tunes on this early Elephants Memory Buddah record, "Old Man Willow" and "Jungle Gym at the Zoo."
The rest is uneventful. Not bad, just a producer in search of a band's sound." |
